A MAN who astonishingly claims to have died 17 years ago says he “time travelled from the year 1987” to disclose “top secret documents” to the world.

In a bizarre online video, published on YouTube by ApexTV, the man called John says he worked as a chemical engineer for a top secret contractor in the private sector. He claims in 1987 his future self told him to come to the year 2018 to reveal important information he had learnt.

Commenting on why he decided to travel to the year 2018, he claimed this was the year he “sent to". In the bonkers video he says his future self had done an excavation in his wife’s backyard.

He said: “Within the ground he [his future self] had buried a gun safe continuing top secret documents about the world around us and things that he knows and that he now wants to be revealed to the world.”

In the interview, John never actually reveals what the documents buried in Cathy’s backyard contains.

However, he said, despite receiving threats from the government, he will eventually reveal the top secret documents.

He admitted: “This is why I came to the future.

“I will reveal them.

“I am going through the safe and there are many documents.”

John's shock claim was made after the audio of what was said to be a 911 call was released shared on social media, in which John's wife, Cathy, reported a house “break-in” to the police only to find out it was her presumed dead husband.

Cathy struggled to keep her emotions together on the phone as the officer desperately attempted to keep her calm and told her to stay in her room.

However, ignoring the advice she entered the room where the noise was coming from and found the “intruder” in her bathtub naked.

She declared on the phone: “He’s my husband.

"He died in 2001."

Cathy, who was interviewed along with her husband John, said her life since the 911 call has been "insane" and that she would not wish this to her worst enemy.

The wife said her husband looked exactly like him but a "younger self".

When asked if John was different in any way since his "return" to life, Cathy claimed John is almost like the shell of the man she knew.

She said: "We unfortunately are husband and wife, but we are not.

"It has been years departing us and he is trying to re-learn the person that has been gone for 17 years."

Some people on social media showed enthusiasm for John's story whilst others claimed that it was not "time travelling" but a case of "cloning".

One said: "You don't think that our government can clone you?

"They have several millions peoples DNA and that is all they need."

Many viewers also questioned the validity of the claims, with one stating: "You guys really believing this?

"Then I have a half of a bridge to the moon I would like to sell you too.

"They set up the 911 Call then brought back the lady who they had do the fake call to do this fake interview."
